I missed the explanation for how the SSDs are connected. Maybe a dumb question.

I remember hearing about an interesting paper; it argued that Zebra finch songs were as complex as recursively enumerable languages on the Chomsky hierarchy. I wanted to see if I could find it but came across another paper arguing that thei

Willing to be corrected but I believe this type of automated resume filtering is illegal. Not saying it never happens but my understanding is it is not typical.

My first rule—before doing anything else—when writing a sentence, is to check whether I could have removed the em dashes by re-ordering the elements. Update: in case it’s not obvious, I am sorry. I could not help it.

Breaking knowledge down into combinable modules is a great insight; ultimately, I think that’s the idea behind Zettlekasten.

I’ve started going down a similar path for scent and ADHD. I have a horrible sense of smell and just learned that it might correlate with symptoms of ADHD.

I’ve had surprisingly positive results with these red light glasses: https://www.eye-power.co.uk/product/eyepower-red/ I don’t know who on Hackernews first mentioned these red light glasses but bought them for my

Fantastic tool and love the delivery; no sign up required. Interested to hear how you pulled that off. Also interested to hear if you plan to eventually support an option to add pitch accent; I've never seen what training material exis

“What’s the memory bandwidth (GB/s) of the device holding the model weights?” Isn’t the recommended option going to be dog slow at 256 GB/s.

I disagree with the author at a surface level; we can retain much more than 90% of what we read. The curious can look up deep reading strategies, e.g., those summarized by Benjamin Keep. At a deeper level, though, there’s truth that we have

I got much better answers with this prompt: “ Jokes are funny precisely because they play on knowledge on two poles: (i) at first listen, they’re surprising, and (ii) upon review, they’re obvious. Let’s think through many many options to an

I’m drawing a connection here between red light therapy being most beneficial if done in the morning. Might mitochondria only be able to benefit from “recharging” in a recharge state? Biochemists?

I don’t know about others but I felt like this article is so high level that it didn’t explain anything at all. Here’s a link to the paper: https://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ad...

I’ll highlight a note from the developer: Sim Daltonism lets you see through the eyes of someone with a color blindness. While the colors shown are a good approximation of what a color blind person would see, you should not expect them to

I really appreciate what Johnny Decimal is trying to solve - we're all struggling with digital organization and the appeal of a clean, simple system is undeniable. Having implemented similar approaches across several teams, I can say i

Anecdotal, so take this with a grain of salt: I’ve used a pair of red light glasses from a Dr in the UK and saw noticeably improved vision.

Suggestion to the void: update the map so that it shows the counties and districts without power.

I had this exact same thought yesterday. I’d go so far as to add one more layer to monitor this one and stop adding layers. My thinking is that this meta awareness is all you need. No data to back my hypothesis up. So take it for what it’s

Do I understand correctly that these apps are able to bypass OS permissions of whether to allow location data?

This almost guaranteed to be a waste of time for others, though, because you created them for yourself, perhaps less so for you. Learning isolated facts via flashcard give you the illusion of learning something. Most likely, when it comes t

Didn’t see it mentioned but good to know about: UCR matrix profile. The Matrix Profile is honestly one of the most underrated tools in the time series analysis space - it's ridiculously efficient. The killer feature is how it just work

I saw this hypothesis in another thread. Although interesting, I did wonder why a regular helicopter doing the same thing would not be sufficient. I don’t now anything about such scans but that was my immediate rebuttal. Like you, though, a

Has anyone seen how these constraints affect the quality of the output out of the LLM? In some instances, I'd rather parse Markdown or plain text if it means the quality of the output is higher.
